I started writng when I was in school. I soon discovered a real love for words. I wrote on regularly but I never had the guts to submit my work to any professional for criticism. I joined this community because I realised that I needed to develop my skills. I am still horrified at the thought of other people reading my work, but I want to share this passion I have for words with people who understand it. I hope to encourage and be encouraged in this world of writing.
